“And we are put on earth a little space,
That we may learn to bear the beams of love.”
– The Little Black Boy“To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.”
– “To See a World,” fragment from Auguries of Innocence“Can I see another’s woe,
And not be in sorrow too?
Can I see another’s grief,
And not seek for kind relief?”
– On Another’s Sorrow
